The successful manufacturing of glulam from several important Australian commercial timbers is quite challenging due to difficulties in gluing. Improvements adhesive bond performance spotted gum, Darwin stringybark, and southern pine timber have been achieved using alternative pre-gluing surface machining methods, e.g., face milling sanding-post planing, when compared conventional planing metho...

This article explores the relationship between craft production, exchange, and power in the pre-Incaic Andes, with a focus on recent archaeological evidence from Chavı́n, Nasca, Tiwanaku, Wari, and Moche. I argue that craft production and exchange in concert with materialized ideologies played vital roles in the development of political power in the Andes. In later state societies, craft product...

BACKGROUND Aboriginal Australians experience a disproportionately high burden of alcohol-related harm compared to the general Australian population. Alcohol treatment approaches that simultaneously target individuals and families offer considerable potential to reduce these harms if they can be successfully tailored for routine delivery to Aboriginal Australians. The Community Reinforcement App...

Planing hulls, commonly used in many areas, have different hydrodynamic behavior than the displacement even calm water. Therefore, this makes calculation of maneuvering parameters these hulls appealing. In present study, a planing hull's numerical static drift analyses are performed using unsteady RANS approach to evaluate sway force and yaw moment at angles attack advance velocities. The resul...
